BIG turning

[alex carey]

I always get a thrill by looking at what other people are doing, seeing the risks they are taking. Check out this guy and his galleries.

Alex, I found this guy a few years ago when I got the bigger lathe and I could not believe the size of his turnings! I am not sure I have the nuggets to try something like that! Thanks for finding it again and sharing it with us.

Sure is some pretty cool stuff! Would be interesting to turn something that large - once!

[Jim Underwood]

He had to assure the photographer that it was safe to even enter the workshop for the photo...:eek:

Seems to me that something that big, and that holey, still isn't safe even if it's finished. At least while it's still spinning....;)

Humbling & Inspiring. Nice stuff.

Thanks for the very interesting post Alex. I'd like to watch that in person...from a distance of course! ...Bill...
